FS-120 Food Slicer 3 63839 MW FS-120 #66242 10/25/01 2:40 PM Page 4 Sally Mercury:65946 Metalware books:66242: Directions For Use 1. If appliance is being used for the first time, follow Cleaning Instructions. To avoid danger of injury, always use Feeder and Food Press Plate while cutting. To start Blade, first slide Safety Switch from position `0' to `I' (Figure 2). While holding Safety Switch, press Pulse Switch button (using the same hand). To begin slicing, push food in with the Food Press Plate and slide food over with the Feeder as shown in Figure 4. Slide Feeder back and repeat until you have sliced the desired amount of food. When finished, release Pulse Switch button and Safety Switch and it will return to the off position. For safety, always return Thickness Adjustment Knob to `0' (Figure 8) after use to shield sharp edge of blade. Cleaning Instructions 1. Never immerse the Motor Assembly of this appliance in water or other liquid. The Blade, Food Press Plate, Feeder and Food Tray can all be hand washed in warm soapy water. Do not leave Blade underwater; trying to handle sharp objects in water is hazardous. Remove Food Press Plate and Feeder by tilting off as shown in Figure 5. Hold blade with one hand and use a coin to unlock Blade Locking Screw by turning it clockwise. To facilitate cleaning, the Thickness Adjustment Knob can be turned past `0' as shown in Figure 7 to allow Supporting Plate to slide back ­ only use this feature with blade removed. After cleaning and before reassembling, push Support Plate forward and reset Thickness Adjustment Knob to `0' (Figure 8). After cleaning and drying, install Blade and Blade Screw to Motor Assembly in reverse order of step 6 (see Figure 6).
